Anti-Semitic Caricature in 1930s Montreal: Language and National Stereotypes in Adrien Arcand’s Le Goglu (1929-1933)
|
| Abstract |
An examination of the anti-Semitic cartoons in the 1930s in the Quebec fascist newspaper Le Goglu, owned by Adrien Arcand (1899-1967). The author addresses the use of language in Le Goglu's anti-Semitic caricatures, that contrasted the "handsome and good French Canadian" with the "bad and vile Jew." She points out that Jews were represented as iconoclasts, vandals, idolaters, fetishistic, and totemic, while French Canadians were portrayed as passive and unobservant to the "Jewish threat" surrounding them.
